Gem Lake Trail

1435 Lumpy Ridge Rd

Estes Park, CO 80517

Website

The trail to Gem Lake is a rocky paradise lined by boulders that are perfectly arranged for climbing.

In the early summer, enjoy the amazing floral colors found along the trail to Cub Lake. Have the youngsters keep an eye out for hummingbirds that may be visiting the flowers. Watch for beaver along the way in the Cub Creek drainage. Beaver dams are easy to spot in this area and stream banks are ideal places to look for animal tracks.
